The LHC is a black hole!!! It has already sucked in 6 billion euros.
Considering that's the total over the lifetime of the project, and the funding has come from many countries, it's pretty cheap. According to Brian Cox, the UK's yearly spend on the LHC is less than we spend on peanuts!

It will solve other problems... Do Ursine Mammals Defacate in Arboreal Areas? Does the Bishop of the Holy See Adorn himself in an Amusing Peice of Millinery? and Could we now go back to ignoring this big hole in the ground? :)

But can you really trust Swiss Time? It's that line in 'The Third Man' 500 years of brotherly love and all the Swiss gave us was the Cuckoo Clock (and a place to put the LHC)

Awesome. As usual, all the people claiming that the world is going to end are early, according to the fountain of knowledge[^] today was only the first attempt to circulate a single beam. Actual high energy collisions aren't due until after October 21st. If the world is going to end, it won't be today.

There was a $2 million grant to examine how flies land on the ceiling. With high-speed cameras, they found out they fly normal up to it, grab on with front 2 legs, and their speed flips the arse over until the back feet grab. Wasn't that worth $2 million?
